OVERVIEW: THE GOLDEN HOOK (4) was a very good trial winner at Shepparton two weeks ago then followed with a third at a Cobram trial on Thursday. He has ability and is worth following. WHERE IT BEGAN (1) performed well at the trials prior to enduring a tough run and finishing unplaced on debut. He is much better drawn for this assignment and must be given another chance. ROCKY ROCKS (5) finished a close second behind THE GOLDEN HOOK (4) at a recent trial performance. He obviously has ability and must be kept safe. DUSTY PHILTRA (7) worked hard when fourth behind Razor Horizon last week. He competed in the Tatlow Stakes when sixth at Melton prior and he should go well against this class.
